So I am on the hunt for a second set of wheels for the GT4 and the best set i've found is the Oz Racing Leggera HLT, but main problem is their front offset is 5mm off from the factory wheels and I want to be pedantic and see if I can get an exact match.

So far the only wheels I have seen that actually have the factory offset are the BBS FI-R, and as amazing as those are they are simply too expensive.

There are some HRE wheels that are custom made too but those are also a bit too expensive.

So here's the challenge. Can someone find a set of wheels that meet the following criteria:
1. Factory fitment (Size, Width, offset etc)
2. Single piece
3. Cheaper than OEM wheels

The BBS and OZ racing websites do a very bad job of showing you exactly what fitments are available, and 3rd party resellers have broken configurators that only recognize your car half the time. For all I know they might make them with the correct offset but I just can't find the information!

At the rate I am going, I might just end up getting a second set of OEM wheels, 981 or 982 generation would be fine by me.

Failing that, does anyone have some hard data that shows that the extra 5mm offset does to the front alignment? I could tolerate that as long as it stays within the spec I want when swapping between sets (Currently set to the DSC recommended half track half street setting with OEM wheels)

Seriously?

You realize how many threads there are on the 718 and 981 forums about this?

Reedy

How very helpful, but search functions on forums suck, and most results I get are people downsizing to 19's.

There are some on TireRack that are factory 20” same offset. Not many and you have to search under 2016 981 as they don’t have results for the 718 yet.

So looking again, it looks like the only OE fitment on tire rack is forged one, never used them.

try https://www.wheelenhancement.com/products/wheels if anyone can find you a wheel they can... or try Eric @SupremePower

I think you may find that "pickings are slim"

post what you find!

BTW I doubt you will find a wheel to match this criteria:

So here's the challenge. Can someone find a set of wheels that meet the following criteria:

2. Single piece
3. Cheaper than OEM wheels

So that's either a forged monoblock or cast wheel, the cheaper part is going to be a bit of a challenge... that pretty much means a cast wheel IMO

BBS Fi-r always a great choice just wont be until Q1 2022 for new orders placed now

Our first Supreme Forged SP1 for GT4 are almost completed in machinjng. Will post soon. Some 3D of the 5 lug and some pics of a 991 Turbo set:

I believe the OP is looking for a 20" wheel cheaper than OEM ...

SupremePower

retail is 5869 for or wheels

ours are slightly more for a custom forged wheel

fi-r 8690/set

Thank you 🙏🏻

The OZ Racing Leggera HLT wheels are close to ideal price/looks/performance for me, I just need something equivalent with a 61mm offset. I think this proves that it's possible, I just need to find them.

Anything comparable to OEM wheels price-wise will need to beat them in weight savings for me to go for.

Reedy

These look great but at the upper limit of what I want to spend. Assuming these are an exact fitment for the Porsche factory specs? How do they compare weight wise?

Do you have any Australian shipping options?

Paul E. Dodd

I'd suggest looking into custom-manufactured wheel options such as Forgestar or BC Forged. Not sure about shipping availability to Australia but as an example the BC Forged run on the order of $4k per set. These wheels can be custom specified to match original specs for width and offset. You'd have to check with the manufacturers to find which styles will provide sufficient caliper/toe link clearance.

SupremePower

Factory spec definitely doable. Np getting to Aus. Will have official weights for Gt4 next week. Will pm ya!
